Featured Zazzle Store - 1 June 2013

My name is Nancy and I've lived in sunny California all my life. I worked on computers before retiring and vowed I’d never work on one again but, when boredom set in, I had to find something to do with my time. Now I’m on the computer daily working on my Zazzle stores and loving it. My neighbor says I'm an anomaly because she says there aren't many my age doing what I'm doing. I am 77 years old and am always surprised when people don’t think people “my age” can turn on a computer.

I don’t remember how I learned about Zazzle but I’m addicted to it and enjoy sharing my photography with others. Recently I opened 3 other stores. One with Chinese folk designs, one with ancient Mexican designs and one geared toward interior decorating: Chinese Folk Designs, AncientMexicanDesign and Interior Decorating.

When I was younger, I wanted to get into photography but, it was a very expensive prospect at that time. Digital point and shoot cameras have made photography, not only less expensive, but easier for an amateur like me. I began taking photos of my pets and interesting sites around town. I then took a graphics class online and learned to edit my photos to make them more interesting.

The San Francisco collage below was one of my more enjoyable projects.

The photo of the starfish below was a lucky break. I was walking along a pier when some kids pointed out the starfish in the water. I wouldn't have seen it had they not pointed it out because there was a 4 foot wall blocking my view but one of the kids climbed the wall and spotted it much to my delight.

Below is one of the icons of San Francisco - the cable car (or tram as it is called in many parts of the world). The canvas print below shows a cable car travelling along a San Francisco street - a must do for any visitor to this beautiful city.
